a lot of sound and fury, signifying... not much, it appears

Date: October 10, 2003 | 13 Shaban 1424 Hijriah
Subjects: news
After all the hysteria over Muslim military chaplain James Yee, it appears that there wasn't much to it after all:

Army investigators are leaning toward filing slap-on-the-wrist charges against a Muslim chaplain at Guantanamo Bay who was investigated on suspicion of espionage, a military source told the Daily News on Wednesday. The "handful" of minor charges against Capt. Yousef Yee could be leveled by next week and are not expected to include the more serious allegations of spying, sedition or aiding the enemy, according to the source familiar with the probe.

"It's very weak," the military source said, saying the charges are likely to be related to dereliction of duty and disobeying a general order. "It's nothing compared to espionage or anything like that"...

...Several military sources said that although many questions remain in the larger espionage investigation, there is no indication a spy ring operated inside the camp.
Update: It's true. Yee has been charged only with two counts of mishanding classified material. Next time before we start a witch-hunt, can we wait until the facts are in?
